Several Reds players said they knew someone was going to take a fall for the disappointing season the team had in 2013, so the fact that Dusty Baker wasn't completely shocking, even if they were surprised to hear the news.

"I thought someone was going to get fired, but I didn't know who," said Bronson Arroyo, who will be a free agent after the end of the World Series. "I'm surprised it was him. I had a conversation with him two days ago and if it was coming, he didn't know it. He was talking about his plans for next season and he was worried about his coaches."
